This important work is a companion volume to "The Dawn of Civilization," and 

 carries the history of the ancient peoples of the East from the twenty-fourth to the 

 ninth century before our era. It embraces the sojourn of the Children of Israel in 

 Egypt, and shows the historic connection between Egypt and Syria during the cen- 

 turies immediately following the exodus. The book embodies the latest discoveries in 

 the field of Egyptian and Oriental archseology, and there is no other work dealing so 

 exhaustively witli the period covered.

■* AND Chald^a.) By Prof. G. Maspero. Edited by Rev. 



Prof. A. H. Sayce. Translated by M. L. McClure. Revised 



and brought up to date by the Author. With Map and over 



470 Illustrations. Quarto. Cloth, $7.50. 



" The most sumptuous and elaborate work which has yet appeared on this theme. 

 . . . The book should be in every well-equipped Oriental library, as the most com- 

 plete work on the da,wn of civilization. Its careful reading and studying will open a 

 world of thought to any diligent student, and very largely broaden and enlarge his 

 views of the grandeur, the stability, and the positive contributions of the civilization of 

 that early day to the life and culture of our own times." — Chicago Standard. 



'JfBy all odds the best account of Egyptian and Assyrian theology, or, more properly 

 speaking, theosophy, with which we are acquainted. . . . The book will arouse many 

 enthusiams. Its solid learning will enchant the scholar — its brilliancy will charm the 

 general reader and tempt him into a region which he may have hesitated to enter."— 

 TAe Outlook. 



" The most complete reconstruction of that ancient life which has yet appeared in 

 print. Maspero's great book will remain the standard work for a long time to come." 

 — London Daily News. 



L 



IFF IN ANCIENT EGYPT AND ASSYRIA, 



By G. Maspero, late Director of Archaeology in Egypt, and 



Member of the Institute of France. Translated by Alice 



Morton. With 188 Illustrations. i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



** A lucid sketch, at once popular and learned, of daily life in Egypt at the time of 

 Rameses II, and of Assyria in that of Assurbanipal. . . . As an Orientalist, M. Mas- 

 pero stands in the front rank, and his learning is so well digested and so admirably sub- 

 dued to the service of popu|ar exposition, that it nowhere overwhelms and always in- 

 terests the reader." — London Times. 



y Only a writer who had distinguished himself as a student of Egyptian and As- 

 syrian antiquities couldhave produced this work, which has none of the features of a 

 modem book of travels in the East, but is an attempt to deal. with ancient life as if one 

 Jtad been a contemporary with the people whose civilization and social usages are 

 very largely restored." — Boston Herald.
